As Canada Day approaches residents and visitors are reminded that the total fire ban and Provincial restricted fire zone remains in effect. Recreational open-air fires, non-recreational open-air fires and the detonation of fireworks are strictly prohibited. Failing to comply with the fire ban restrictions may result in a fine of at least $250.
As a result of the fire ban, the Rotary Club of Bracebridge’s annual Canada Day fireworks display is cancelled.
